You guys really need to start acting nicer to newer forum members around here. and i'm sick of the all popular comment "read the forum!!" or "look around!!" because some of the newer members do not know how to use the forum as well as the older members. when the forum is set at default to cut off topics over a week old on your browser, how is someone who has no clue how to use the forum going to find an old topic?

Start using your heads people... and for those of you who don't have one to begin with, you need to stop Trolling (http://members.aol.com/intwg/trolls.htm), because it's just plain pathetic. Tmy and leftyfb have asked many of you multiple times to stop, as have most of the forum vets. lefty says he's getting sick of the crap, and i agree with him, it's time to shape up guys. because if you don't, i think those of you who are repeat offenders out there should not and will not be around here for much longer.

I've posted a topic on this subject many times, and listen to Tantum, I'm tired of seeing the same repetitive sentences("useless topic", "dumb ####"). This needs to stop.....

newcomers need our help. what they don't need is cocky vets telling them that they suck and what not. if you can't see that the right thing to do is to try to help them out then i don't see why you're still here. help them out and maybe i can get a challenge out of what everyone else thinks is just another noob...we have to train the newcomers in order to get new challenges.

i never said anything, but i believe new ppl should post insignificant posts in the ###### section.

Tantum: I doubt it...

haolys: what they don't need is cocky vets telling them that they suck and what not.

"Vets" won't do such a thing. Like the #### and new guy thing, there is a difference between a vet and a long time member. I wasn't chosen to enter the vet tourney, but I've been a member of the game since Sept. 2001. Vets are nice members who have been here a while, and help people. long time members are cocky flamers. If you're a long time member, but not a cocky flamer, you've earned the term "vet".

But thats just one Saiyan's opinion.
